What are the main parts of a screw?

The main parts of a screw include: Head: The top part of the screw that is usually slotted or Phillips-shaped for turning with a screwdriver or drill. Shank: The cylindrical body of the screw that has threads wrapped around it. Threads: The spiraled ridges on the shank that grip and secure materials when the screw is turned. Point: The sharp or tapered end of the screw that facilitates easy penetration into materials. Root: The bottom of the threads, where they meet the shank. Length: The measurement from the tip of the screw to the bottom of the head. These components work together to fasten materials by turning the screw into them


In flat rolling what is a screw down and a top roll balancing mechanism?

In a rolling mill, the screw down (usually electrically operated in big mills) is the mechanism for setting up the spacing between the rollers, called the roll gap. The top roll balancing mechanism is a mechanical (rods, springs) or hydraulic setup to hold the top roller up in contact with the screw down. The larger mills we see in operation have massive rollers, and they have considerable weight. The whole of the upper roll mechanism will be set in heavy chocks to to stabilize it and distribute the loads of the rolling operation. Additionally, we often see mills with backup rollers, and the top work roller and backup roller pair will be held in contact with the screw down by the top roll balancing mechanism. There is a bit more to this when we consider the dynamic operation of the biggest rolling mills, but the basics remain the same. The thickness of the product, the "indexing" of the roll gap, will be set by the screw down. And the the top roller is held up against the screw down by the top roll balancing mechanism.

If the cork in the bottle has come away from the neck does that render the bottle useless it is still sealed by the screw on top?

What you are asking does not make sense. The bottle has either got a cork or it is a screw top. It cannot be both. If you can pour the wine out, then you should drink it soon. If you cannot pour it out, then you can store it until you decide to drink it.
